turboplast

The latest high performance rotation-resistant rope designed &
manufactured by CASAR Germany, a member of WireCo WorldGroup.
TURBOPLAST
8-strand rope with compacted outer strands
Fully lubricated
Plastic layer between the steel core and outer strands
High breaking load and resistance to drum crushing
Lang lay or regular lay
Applications:
A premier boom hoist rope for mobile cranes, deck
cranes & grabs, and a hoist rope for container cranes,
floating cranes, portal cranes and steel mill cranes. Ideal
where rotation resistant ropes are not required, such as
multiple part reeving for smaller lifting heights, twin hoist
systems with left and right hand ropes for greater lifting
heights and riser tensioners.
CASAR® manufactures specialty wire rope and hoisting cables,
characterized by advanced engineering, innovation and technology.
CASAR® delivers superior performance for mission-critical applications in
construction, industrial, and OEM markets.

Casar’s Turboplast is a compacted
8-strand rope with an independent
wire rope core that provides versatility
in meeting the crane market’s needs.
However, its use is not limited to crane
applications. Turboplast provides
high strength, improved resistance to
drum crushing, exceptional flexibility,
and excellent structural stability
during operation which makes it less
susceptible to birdcaging.
Resistance to Wear
The Turboplast compacted strand
design helps to maximize resistance
to wear by greatly increasing wire and
strand surface areas that contact
sheaves and drums. The enhanced
surfaces of the compacted strands also
help minimize strand-to-strand nicking
which results in greater resistance to
fatigue.
Resistance to Crushing and Abrasion
on Drums
The characteristics of Turboplast
enhance its performance in multiplelayer spooling as well. The design
of Turboplast provides excellent
resistance to both abrasion and
scrubbing that occurs at kickover
areas and crushing that occurs at
the crossover points in multiple-layer
drum spooling. The rope construction
combined with the compacted strand
design of Turboplast results in a rope
cross-section of very high density. These
features provide increased resistance to
drum-related wear.
